The New Orleans Saints are going to head into the late-April, early-May 2021 NFL Draft with a plethora of positions that could use upgrades. The most notable will be wide receiver, cornerback, and linebacker.

The Saints entered the offseason handicapped by the salary cap, but they have since clearly more than nine figures in cap space, freeing up the team to re-sign Jameis Winston and slap the franchise tag on Marcus Williams.
